Cheater

[Woodland4807 13]

So I'm scheduled for surgery tomorrow and we went out for lunch and my favorite place didn't have my French onion Soup that I usually get just the broth. They had a creamy rice and I tried hard to not get any chunks. With that said my family got pizza and not even thinking I took a big bite and then my husband said what are you doing as I swallowed...will I be ok tomorrow if I didn't do my full liquid diet today?!? Help!

You should be fine a bite of pizza is not gonna hurt you . We all make mistakes

The pre op diet is the surgeons choice.

I am 1 week post op today. My only restriction was nothing to eat or drink after midnight the night before. So I think you will be fine.

Good Luck! And Best Wishes!

I'm on pre-op diet too. 14 days of total liquids. It's so tough but I see such variations in pre-op diets that I'm sure you are fine.

What time did you stop eating today? The liquid diet is a matter of preference that varies doctor to doctor. However when stop eating the day before surgery is important because that food may still be in your stomach/system being digested. That can sometimes cause problems. They will likely review with your last time you ate/drank anything. Be honest with them.
